    I agree that the cost of government is an "overhead cost." But, try and develop a stable economy without overhead. And, why don't you believe that GDP growth can't be achieved based on a strictly national economy without imports or exports?

    The US is not invading any country, much less the four mentioned. Why? South Korea, Vietnam, Kuwait, and Iraq demonstrates that we can win battles but not the peace. Our air force and naval components are fully capable of keeping them in their countries. Anyone, other than kriman, can answer this; kriman does not know.

    Banks are profitable right now, LangleyMan, but, as we all know, that can change dramatically at the top of things.

    Let me help you with your incomplete data which only goes to Q2 2019.

    2019 brought in a $3.46 trillion revenue for the Federal government outdoing any of the 8 years of Obama...

    It's the official data from the Fed.
    Even your own sources disagrees with you. Thanks for the estimates.

    Maybe you should do a dive into who The Balance are.

    Your chart only goes to Q2 of 2019. Why doesn't it show Q3 and Q4? You posted an incomplete chart.

    The data I posted shows the "actual", not "estimated", revenues for ALL of 2019 being $3.46 trillion.

    That's it for official figures. Everything else is subject to revision.
    You might check your source.

    Tax cuts don't pay for themselves. Keep that in mind.

    Nope, my sources show that Trump is steadily around 40 to 42%. He is gaining no votes.

    And, if as he keeps bragging that the economy is so good, why does he say the economy is in serious trouble?
